This paper describes the 3D microstructuring by laser beam technology. It employs both one-component solid-state sintering and two-metal liquid-phase selective laser sintering of the metallic powders with high and low melting point. The influence of the processing conditions on the type of phases and the microstructure evolution are considered.
